Spring will be here this Thursday and always reminds me of this lady. She was my confidant and one of my best friends. Not a day has gone by that I don't miss her. She would have been 94 on April 13th.
I definitely got my jewelry liking from her. She had beautiful jewelry. Even if she was cleaning, she had her earrings on. :-) I have gotten into stacking bracelets lately. I found these awesome cheap bangles @ http://ishoplarue.com.
So I wasn't quite sure I liked the Chevron print that everything is being made with but I do I do! I got this one shoulder top and this taupe/black dress from
my friend's MIL boutique. I haven't worn them yet but how cute are they ?!?
Another thing I have been loving lately are Cuties!!! Could be the 5 pound box was on sale ;-) So easy to peel and so good
Speaking of Cutie, I got a Boston Terrier bobble head from my husband for
V-Day ! I have always wanted one and she is awesome on my dash :-)
So I have long had the reputation of totally butchering song lyrics... I guess there are worse reputations to have. ;^) The person this has tickled most has to be my BFF. Probably because she knows every lyric to EVERY song ever made!! Or I guess it could be that I always botch the lyrics in front of her. HA In my defense, I recorded snippets from the 'questionable' songs....
Example #1 Trace Adkins "Gone Fishin"- Perfectly cute song about a Daddy happy to be making memories with his daughter. We are in the car and I am singing (or a clown was being strangled) and I sing "Nuttin too malnicious" I say to BFF what is malnicious? She is like huh? He said nuttin too ambitious and I am like nawwww he said MALNICIOUS. New word created right there- Mal-ni-cio-us = to be ambitiously malicious. Someone call Websters stat...
Example #2 The Script "For the first time"- On my way to pick up BFF at work, I hear this and am blown away that the local radio station wouldn't bleep out a cuss word. She gets in the car and I say I cant believe it but they just played the cuss word. She said what cuss word? I said listen.... "drinking cheap bottles of wine, sh*t talking up all night." She is laughing and says nooo it is sit talking. Sit Talking? Like what is that? I mean if we arent gonna sh*t talk each other and say that your grandma wears combat boots..I am not interested in being up all night. Just saying.....
Example #3- Saved the best for last but I can't take credit for this doozy. :) Working at Central Hardware, we would listen to the radio while we were closing up at night. A cashier asked me to turn it up because she LOVED this song. It was from the second Karate Kid movie. So she is singing, "I am a man who will fight for Euroanna" I said what did you just say. She said it again. I said what is Euroanna? She shrugged and said "I guess a country in Europe??" Best lyric mess up EVER!!
